You can locate data from formatted and "wiped" hard drive, if you have the resources behind you.

Can you point to an actual instance you know of where this has happened? I don't mean that in an aggressive or challenging way, I'm sincerely interested after reading that rebuttal of Guttman's paper. I've also always subscribed to the "complete destruction" idea.

I don't mean recovery of data where someone accidentally issued a "del" or "rm" command and the file is pieced back together, or recovery of some data after filesystem corruption, etc. I'm wondering if someone has truly recovered data from a drive where every single bit of data has been overwritten with zeroes/random data/whatever.
